Specifi cations
Various load conditions will affect winch performance. The line pull required for a specifi c application de-
pends on the weight of the load, condition of the trailer rollers, and the degree of the loading ramp incline.
The chart below is based on a single line pull and is a guideline to aid in calculating pulling requirements.
NOTE: The noise level of this winch in operation is below 98db (A).

- A 10% incline (or 6 deg) is 1 foot rise in 10 feet.
- To convert from pounds to kilos divide by 2.2
- Capacity can be increased (almost doubled) by using a pulley block.
